Banana Almond Bread – Egg Less Banana Bread

Jump to Recipe

This eggless banana almond bread is an excellent way to use over ripe bananas. It is also a very good snack for kids. It is very easy to make and can also be made as muffins.

Schools have begun and so is all the lunch and snack packing. Until this year it was just my older one and my husband who were taking packed lunches and snack, but this year my little one also started his full day of school.

My little one with big taste buds requires variety not only in lunch but also n snacks.

I love quick breads as they make up for a wonderful and filling snack. Most of the times, banana is my first choice of fruit in a quick bread for two reasons. One, it gives lots of moisture and natural sweetness to egg less bakes and two, I always have an abundance of over ripe bananas.

It was the same story last week, when I had lots of bananas left over after all the poojas and celebrations. So, I decided to make this Banana Almond Bread .

My usual recipe for banana bread is the one in which I use oil instead of butter as fat. I also make a banana and pineapple muffins which uses oil as the fat along with buttermilk.

This time though I wanted to try using butter and yogurt. The bread was really soft and tender and was very soft and spongy. I also used almonds as I had lots of it in the pantry.

Couple of days after I baked this loaf, I made a batch of mini muffins using the same recipe. I included some dried cranberries in my muffin along with the almond and we loved the tartness of the cranberries.
